    I remember when the Mayweather vs De La Hoya "superfight to save boxing" thing happened. A friend asked me what I thought and I told him to save his money. The upcoming Barrera Morales fight around the same time was going to be way better, even if it wasn't getting the same publicity.

    I also like to add Bradley beating Abregu by UD is a nice win. Abregu's only loss is to Bradley, the guy just KO'd undefeated Prada last week. The guy was 30-0-1 and with that win, Abregu is now 36-1 (29 kos)

    I love Manny, but Bradley has always been box office poison and doesn't sell a single PPV. The buy rate won't be more than about 500k. You need two fighters who can draw to get a pay per view in the million buy range and you need to promote the hell out of it for months in advance.

    Alvarez looked like a zombie against Mayweather while Bradley was very elusive and was actually trying to win the fight unlike Alvarez who probably just gave up after 2 rounds :deal

    Bradley was more proven than Canelo.

    He did not look like a zombie so please stop it :lol:

    U cant compare him not making 154 7 months later to him making 152 for Mayweather.

    Yes Bradley was elusive, thats the way he fights :patsch

    Canelo didnt give up after 2 rounds, Mayweather just does what he does to every fighter. adjust and shuts them down.

    I have to say Canelo. He still the most dangerous fighter Mayweather has faced in a long time. and maybe the rest of his career. Pac had won the first fight already so how does it compare to a Canelo fight??

    Nope.

    But he never had a chance to beat Mayweather. in there primes it was still like 80-20 Mayweather.

    Pac has always fought this way. wild combos and wide open for counters. how do u think JMM did great 4 times??

    Hey Freddie, remember you said you guys don't need floyd, well why are you guys calling him out. He pays no attention to you guys. Go fight marquex again, or Bradley or even rios again. You guys are the rematch kings of boxing.

    I think it's a valid point that applies to both Pacquiao and Mayweather. These guys are so good and so much is expected of them that people find themselves giving rounds to their opponent if either of them is not totally dominant in that round. They are all most victims of their own success.

    I voted for Canelo beacuse skill for skill I think canelo is more dangerous for floyd than bradley is for pacquiao if that makes sense.
